Welcome to It's Not JUST A Period!
This week, Alexandra sits down with Sharon Luca, founder of the Luca Foundation, to discuss her devastating experience of losing her son, Luca, at full term.
This episode carries a trigger warning as the conversation covers the themes of baby loss, grief, mental health and suicide.
Sharon bravely shares her journey through pregnancy, the systemic failures she encountered within the healthcare system, and the profound impact on her physical and mental health.
This powerful discussion highlights the urgent need for better support and resources for bereaved parents. Alexandra and Sharon explore the extensive trauma of stillbirth, the challenges of navigating pregnancy after loss, and the importance of systemic change in healthcare practices. They also discuss the critical work of the Luca Foundation in providing support to families and raising awareness about baby loss.
